continue at MadCatHeraldSt. Peter Parish is celebrating its 150th anniversary this year and held a Mass and dinner November 5 to mark the occasion.
Bishop Robert C. Morlino came to the parish, located in rural Dane County about 10 miles outside Madison, to celebrate Mass. Concelebrants included Fr. Brian Dulli, pastor of the parish, Fr. Laverne Meier, Fr. John Meinholz, and Fr. Henry Kalscheuer.
The parish has grown considerably since it was founded by 20 families as a mission church of Cross Plains and Martinsville. It currently has over 300 registered families.
“Many other people have been positively impacted by the Holy Spirit’s generous outpouring in Ashton,” said Father Dulli in his homily during the Saturday evening Mass which packed the church’s pews.

Now THAT'S a church!
I hear ya, Brianne! I would love to have that as my home church!
This is sort of pathetic, but I've never been in the church proper. But I HAVE been to the Lenten Fish Fry and it's amaaaazing.
Seriously, people line up for a long time (I think we clocked in around 1.5 hours two years ago). It's really good.
Just a little Lenten PSA for your Madison-area readers who might be on the look-out for a good fish fry! And Fr. Brian is awesome!
